All Politics is Personal! Call Your Family and Friends and Make Sure They Vote!
I once was in charge of running the Section 8 Housing Program for a large town of 80,000 people. Corruption ran rampant. Once I was terminated the director asked in his next sentence, “Would you like to work for another two weeks?” Of course, I said, “Yes!”
So what did I do for the next two weeks? Did I take it easy? Nope! I frantically pushed through as many housing contracts and leases that were in the pipeline, as humanly possible. Even with my successor breathing down my back, I gently reminded her my authority did not end until 5 PM on Friday.
Regardless of what happens on Election day, the Democrats retain total power until noon on January 3, 2023. I hope they do exactly what I did and work frantically to get as much done as humanly possible. Even if that means sacrificing some of their precious vacation time around Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years!
Judges and other presidential appointments can’t be filibustered! Yeah! THERE ARE CURRENTLY 88 OPEN FEDERAL JUDGESHIPS. EVEN MORE IMPORTANT THEIR ARE 45 NOMINATIONS PENDING! The stats don’t mention how many of the Judges have been voted out of committee. Regardless, the Dems need to get moving. Ya got roughly seven weeks. I don’t care what Chuck and Friends got to do. But if the Dems lose Senate control come January 3rd I want to see, AT LEAST, 45 shiny, brand new Federal judges being sworn in by New Years!
There are numerous House bills that are sitting on Chuck’s desk. I realize the forces of evil are gonna let the vast majority of them die by filibuster. If that’s reality then don’t waste your time, Chuck. Focus on the Judges and other Biden nominees, like Ambassadors, before no one right of Attila the Hun can get past the Republican anarchists in the Senate!
I agree with the Boy Scouts: BE PREPARED!
